Claire Locke This is an alternate cover edition for ASIN B075RPD4K8
“What if I was to say you're not ugly at all, but as lovely and intriguing a woman as I've ever seen?”
“I would say you're jesting and that it's quite unkind.”
Luck has never been on Lill's side. Her ma left her on the doorstep of her cruel aunt's when she was so young she doesn't even recall her ma's name. What can Lill expect from life when she's quite aware of how ugly her white blond hair is and how unsettling her pale eyes are?
Certainly not the chance to get married to a handsome stranger and be whisked away from her unfortunate fate.
Hugh's ready to settle down. He's sold his company, bought a ranch, and now he just needs a wife. His first impressions of Lill aren't too generous, but he comes to reconsider things when he see's the cruelty she faces under her aunt's care.
But even after they're married not everything is not all smiles and laughter, not when Aunt Martha hears about Hugh's fortune and how she let Lill of all people walk away with him.
